Abstract: A method of compressing one-dimensional time series
data at uniform time intervals comprises: a first process of
inputting the one-dimensional time series data and an
approximation accuracy thereof; a second process of
calculating node candidates of an interpolation function
approximating the one-dimensional time series data; a third
process of optimizing positions of the node candidates; a
fourth process of judging an error between one-dimensional
time series data produced using the interpolation function,
based on the node candidates at optimized positions, and the
original one-dimensional time series data; a fifth process
of judging an error between one-dimensional time series data
produced using the interpolation function on the basis of
the node candidates at optimized positions and the original
one-dimensional time series data, and changing a node number
and returning to the second process when the error exceeds a
value based on the approximation accuracy; and a sixth
process of outputting data of the node candidates and
corresponding time data as compressed data when it is judged
in the fifth process that the error does not exceed the
value based on the approximation accuracy. Therefore,
compression adapted to the properties of the given one-dimensional
time series data is performed. In addition, 
since the compression ratio is controlled by the
approximation accuracy, errors after decompression can be
grasped in advance.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for compacting a liquid ink developed image on an image bearing surface in a multicolor electrostatographic printing machine of the type utilizing liquid developing material. particularly an image-on-image type liquid ink multicolor system. The image compacting apparatus includes a biased electrode situated proximate to the image on an image bearing surface, and a liquid applicator for depositing liquid insulating material in a conditioning gap defined by the electrode and the image bearing surface. A high electric potential is applied to the electrode for generating a large electric field in the gap to electrostatically compress toner particles into image areas on the image bearing surface. The liquid insulating material is deposited into the conditioning gap for avoiding the risk of air breakdown as may occur in an electrostatic device of this nature due to the small geometry of the apparatus and the tendency of air ionization in an air gap between electrically biased surfaces. Preferably, the liquid insulating material is the very same material utilized as the liquid carrier component of the liquid developing material.
